Very impressive vid for such 'old' tech all tweaked up like that.

What is Tr3B doing with this other than releasing an ET version of XReal? I'm slightly confused by this;

"And that’s the next point. As some people expected … the original XreaL game project is dead and I won’t waste my resources on dealing with artists again."

Was there some bad mojo hanging around with the original XReal project or something?

[EDIT]I just thought... I wonder if this XReal:ET stuff can be used for RtCW single player!?

probably some bad mojo

[ratty redemption]

does this bad mojo affect dersaidin's xreal project?
